i inadvertently sent an e-mail & i want to retrieve or recall it so it won't
be received in Windows Mail like we could in Outlook Express. is this
possible? if so, how?

Chaz,

Once the mail is gone it is gone... I only know of one service that allows
recall and that is AOL but only if you send to another AOL eMail address.
However, *just to be sure* you can check the microsoft.public.outlook
newsgroups.

Outlook and Exchange can do the same. But it doesn't work outside
that email server. Well, it might work if the email was sent to
another Exchange server.

It's rather amusing to, very occasionally, see a Microsoft email and
then the delete remail all coming from a MS Exchange server. As I
don't run Exchange server, etc, I can view both emails.

We are running Exchange. In my experience, I see both the original
email and the recall request. Makes me want to go back and look at
the original email more closely. Similar to books getting a bump in
sales when they are banned. :)
